And If I book premier seat during 12.00 -13.00, Is it serve lunch on train? Or Can I bring my own food or buy it on train?
Thank you very much
2. Stay on the train for 10 stops and get off at the Chegongmiao Station.
3. At Chegongmiao Station, transfer to Metro Line 6 (Mangrove Line) towards Songgang.
4. Take Line 6 for 5 stops and get off at the Shenzhen North Station.
But I read in the write up that Metro line 6 is currently under construction ? I will be arriving in Shenzhen in a Sept 24. Is line 6 in operation ? Also the advised is it correct ? Does line 6 goes direct to Shenzhen North Station ? Thanks for your advice.
Here is my advice:
Take metro line 11 to Qianhaiwan, then transfer to line 5 to Shenzhen North, taking about one hour and CNY 8.
If so, what are the apps available in English preferably?
